Union accuses King Soopers in lawsuit of violating agreement ending strike

King Soopers and City Market have been accused of violating the agreement signed with UFCW Local 7 that ended the union’s 12-day strike in February.

DENVER (KDVR) — King Soopers and City Market have been accused of violating the agreement signed with UFCW Local 7 that ended the union’s 12-day strike in February.

The strike took place from Feb. 6 through Feb. 17. The agreement that ended the strike allowed the union to return to the bargaining table with Kroger, which owns King Soopers. The agreement also ensured for at least 100 days, Kroger cannot implement any offer, could not lock out workers during the return-to-work settlement, and the union would not take any strike actions.
